Third Eye Blind’s new album postponed…

Third Eye Blind’s fourth full-length album, Ursa Major, has been postponed and I am very, very sad. I’ve been waiting since 2003 for this album, goddamnit, and I want it now! A few (possible) tracks have been available on the band’s Myspace, as well as leaked, but I want the whole album!

According to the band’s Wikipedia page, there isn’t even a final track listing done yet. Boo. I started researching this album months ago to prepare myself for the review to end all reviews. In those few months, the prospective song listing has changed at least 3 times.

So, for all those other 3EB fans waiting patiently, this one’s for you:

Third Eye Blind – Don’t Believe A Word
Cigarette’s make an ember stain
Notes scribbled on paper chain
Ever get the feeling that you’ve been cheated?
You busted out, you’ve been defeated
All strong bones we hold no water
A big fake smile and you try harder
Time wound down and you’ve been cached
Half measures are all half-assed!
How did I ever end up this way?
‘Cause I go numb in disarray
I cultivate my ignorance
Didn’t I have some standards once?
I hate you down to your boots

We wanted clever, we settled for cute and
Remember the times I looked in your eyes
All the times we rhapsodized
Do not love you will find no trust and
Do not touch you will find no such
Give me back my photos, will you?
You fucking whore I’ll kill you!

Every fake is everything
Some dull ache replace the sting
Rap stars brag and shoot each other
And entertain just like no other
We love thugs when they attack and
We love crime all black on black and
Isn’t this you, cruel-hearted fake?
Isn’t this more than you can take!

Found a bomb with big linch pins
Yay for the bullies, they always win
All sensation makes no sense
Some insane confidence
Isn’t this you, cruel-hearted fake?
Isn’t this more than you can take?
Scandalize now with such ease
Stress this secular disease
Sermon tells a soldier squeeze
The trigger on our enemies
We’re all alive, all alone
Til you come home
Please come home
